New research has revealed that Dubai's Burj Al Arab Jumeirah is the most beautiful five-star hotel in the world according to Instagram data, followed by Soneva Jani in the Maldives and then Las Vegas' Bellagio.

With so many five-star hotels offering stunning architecture and world-class service, Money.co.uk were curious to discover the most beautiful accommodation around the globe that future travellers can start looking forward to staying in. The research involved analysing over 10 million Instagram hashtags associated with the world’s five-star hotels, the ones with the most Instagram hashtags were then ranked from highest to lowest to create a list of the most picturesque in the world. 

The results reveal that Dubai's Burj Al Arab Jumeirah is the world's most beautiful five-star hotel. Although it is officially rated as five stars, the Burj Al Arab Jumeirah is widely known as a seven-star hotel as a result of its extravagance; guests are offered Rolls Royce chauffeur service, a pillow menu so you can customise your comfort, and endless photo opportunities outside its dhow shaped architecture. So much so, it has racked up 2,428,501 Instagram hashtags of guests sharing its beauty with their followers!
